Roses

Along came Linda, Linda in roses
Blood-red petals hide the thorny truth
She stood there, like I was her savior
And we stood there, staring at the moon
And she fell down laughing, at my feet
She fell down crying, in the street
That's Linda, Linda in roses
Blood-red petals hide the thorny truth

Well we stood there, on through the darkness
And we worried just a bit about the dawn
Yeah, building up anticipation
And trashing down everything that was
And she fell down laughing, at my feet
She fell down crying, in the street
That’s Linda, Linda in roses
Blood-red petals hide the thorny truth

And nothing feels the same anymore
And nothing goes my way
I'm losing all the games I used to play
There's nothing left today
Hey, hey, hey
